BOSS Audio Systems Elite BE920WCPA Car Stereo - 7" Display, Wireless Apple CarPlay & Android Auto Head Unit, Double DIN Touch Screen Car Stereo, Bluetooth, AM/FM Radio, USB, No CD/DVD Player

So far excellent unbelievable sound

I rather like this unit. It works well , the interface is simple and it support true wireless apple car play. The screen and interface is good , the quality is decent and thus far no issues using it. It has a lot of configurable capabilities and has provided my VW Tiguan 2011 a new lease in sound. The only reason I am giving it a 4 star is that the unit has a SD Card slot for media in it , which in 2025 I think is a huge miss. It should at a minimum have been a USB -C. The unit does come with usb cables in the back but my car does not have ports to connect to and so those go unused behind the face plate. Depending on your vehicle you may have to buy a 3rd party harness which i did which also came with a built in speaker so i did not have to runs cables all throughout the paneling in my car.

I’ve only had it installed for a couple days. Not sure why but occasionally I get a black screen. Might be something I’m doing on start up but still checking.2013 Jeep WranglerWhen connecting with a crutch field adapter, be sure to connect the front speakers of the deck to the rear input wires of the adapter or you won’t hear anyone when they phone. The Boss deck only uses front speakers for voice on phone calls and the adapter only uses rear inputs for sound. So if you notice your phone connects but you can’t hear anyone, reverse the speaker front to back and back to front.Connect white deck wiring to green and grey deck to purple. You may not even need to connect any rear speaker outputs as my car/adapter doesn’t use them anyway.Update (1-1/2 weeks in)Still continue to have black screen issues, I believe it’s connected to the Apple CarPlay. It will randomly go black and you can’t control or bring it back without shutting your vehicle off.Oct 31Deck keeps changing from stereo to mono on its own.Bluetooth says it’s connected but no one can hear me.Apple car play causes black screen and shows connected but they can hear me but I can’t hear them….This doesn’t happen every time but I’d say 8 out of 10 this happens… it only works correctly about 5 % of the time….Terrible deckUpdate Dec 2023Boss send me a new deck after I had to pay the shipping $30us although the deck is slightly better, it still goes to a black screen but I can wake it back up…. All the other problems still exist…2 stereo with the same issue.? Not likely, terrible quality

So far very pleased upgraded from a wired CarPlay model that dropped connection all the time. Will update if quality slips

Radio is ok. Decent sound, etc. but it’s CarPlay. Super convenient when it always disconnects when you’re using the maps in CarPlay, especially around air ports and downtown any large city. Like it was intentionally designed to cause accidents by failing to work when your in an area your unfamiliar with and trying to find a new place.

This product is so good I think it’s the best thing I buy in Amazon

This is the second one of these units that I bought, I think it’s a great deal for the money and the addition of Wireless CarPlay on this unit was a big bonus. It seamlessly connects to your phone wirelessly 99% of the time but about one percent of the time you get a fuzzy screen and have to turn the unit on and off to clear it out. That is literally my only complaint other than that, I think it’s awesome for the price. Sound quality is pretty good The microphone and GPS antenna of the unit comes with work great and this generation of screen has better contrast than the older unit . Despite the four star rating, I still highly recommend this head unit.

I have been using this stereo for about 2 months, its been a mostly smooth and problem free experience. The touch screen is responsive, crisp resolution (1024x600), brightness during the day and night is totally acceptable. (I turned the night brightness down all the way, and daytime to 80%).Sound quality is excellent over wifi, the UI is responsive and the android auto wifi connection is pretty solid. I have rockford fosgate component speakers and an alpine sub/amp hooked up to this. Lots of audio settings on this stereo. The included microphone is perfectly suitable for calls in a moving vehicle. People report that my voice sounds a bit quiet, but is very legible without background noise.Once in a while the playback drops for a split second when passing semi trucks, which must be due to some kind of interference. Its reliable enough overall that it isn't an issue, even in traffic. I upgraded to a bigger wifi antenna for a better connection, it uses SMA connector antennas.I have only had one instance of the stereo freezing, requiring me to turn my vehicle off and back on, but just one instance in 2 months doesnt seem that problematic to me. All the major issues others describe sound like issues with poorly made wiring harnesses and intermittent/bad connections. I soldered and heat shrunk my wiring harness. I would highly recommend this for any stereo install, you do it once and dont worry about it again for the life of the vehicle. I was worried about the Boss brand before buying this, but it's honestly better than the android auto factory stereo in the 2024 tacoma TRD I rented recently. Disable the boot EULA screen in the settings for a faster startup.
